Do you need NIStune Help?

[jlinder]

Hello all,I thought it would be useful to start a NIStune thread, where we could help each other out with tunning issues or any other lessons learned. I have been running my NIStune for 10 months now, and love it. I still tinker with the tune now and then, and usually make slight improvements. I know that Nico wont let us attach a .bin file, so we will have to send them through email.

I am running a S13 blacktop SR20 with 550cc injectors, N60 maf, and a FP BIG28 turbo. The tune that I wanted to attach works great for me. It idles strong and the air fuel ratio is great at cruising (14.6 - 14.9) and rocks solid under full boost (11.8 AFR) which is 19 lbs. Remember, I do live in Florida so we have 93 octane (sweet). So if you are stuck with 91 octane, you my want to pull the timing down just a hair.

Email me [email protected] for the bin file, I hope this helps someone get started, and I hope this thread will grow.

Thanks for the info man, how does she run on 19lbs?

I love it, She pulls hard. I haven't ran it a the track yet, but it feels like a mid 12 sec. car. My friend is running a sr20 with NIStune, 740cc injector, Z32 MAF, and a 2871r .64. He is running his at 20lbs. and he in the high 11's. But first gear is pointless and thats with an 18"X10 1/2" rim on the rear. My hole shot is better, but he walks away from me on the street.

I've been running Nistune on a N/A ka24de since February or so.I bought it and a WBo2 so I could learn about engine tuning.

I've learned alot and even had friends test my NA tune by driving the car without knowing if it's the stock tune or my tune, and they say "this one is faster" and it'll be my tune. I haven't had any dyno time yet, this is just adjusting Fuel:Air ratios and timing.

My friends and I goto junkyards alot so I already have the required parts to get Major HP when I go turbo.

I already have (I guess I collect MAFs):N60 MAF (maxima maf)N62 MAF (300zx maf)P60 MAF (q45 MAF)

I also have 7 working stock ka24de injectors I'm going to mod using these instructions:http://www.co-allens.com/pictu...r.pdf

After that I'll send them off to get cleaned/flow tested and hopefully the'll be flowing 550cc..

I plan to go turbo as soon as I have the funds and finish learning how-to weld and machine (I'm taking a machining class now, and learning to weld slowly at work. (That way I just have to buy turbo and can make my own header/downpipe.)
